Mrs. Margaret Sybetta Denny, better known as  "Sybetty" departed this life July 2, 2022 at Atrium Health Baptist Hospital.

Sybetta owned and operated a daycare in the home for over a decade and retired from the Winston Salem Forsyth Country school system in 2014. Sybetta was a woman with a heart of gold and loved her family, her fashion, and her faith. She could set anyone straight with a few words and a look. She was feisty but full of love  She did not play about her family and would stand against anyone who tried to mess with it.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Rosalee and Eva Hagler, her loving son John, a great granddaughter Heavenly, her sisters Geneva Mann and Linda Lackey and a brother Jimmy Hagler.

She leaves to cherish her memory her loving husband, John of 57 years , five daughters Deborah (Oscar) Strange, Hopi (Frankie) Denny, Tabitha (Cedric) McCullough, Margaret Denny, and Nikkole Denny all of Winston Salem plus 10 grandchildren, 12 great grandchildren, her siblings Ross Hagler, Dorothy (RC) Bryant, Zealous Hagler, Michael (Gracie) Hagler, Vanessa (Ambrose) Gomillion, Ruby Houser all of Jonesville, NC, and Chris (Hayden) Parsons of Winston Salem and Naomi Whittington of Walnut Cove, NC. A special niece Mickey King. Her special grandchildren Kam, Bri and Ava and a host of nieces, nephews and cousins that she loved dearly.

Although Sybetta will be missed tremendously here, she is now back with her son and her parents and is no longer suffering. The family will carry her memory in our hearts for the rest of our days.

"Death leaves a heartache no one can heal; love leaves a memory no one can steal."
